Gold diggers: Like mother, like daughter. that is what Vanessa Bryant's former stepfather is saying about the soon-to-be ex-wife of NBA superstar Kobe Bryant.
Stephen Laine said in the aftermath of Kobe Bryant's divorce announcement that Vanessa, his spouse of ten years, is acting similar to her money-grubbing mom.
"Her mother taught her well to attend for the ten-year mark [before divorcing]," he said. "In California ... it's thought of an extended term marriage and then she gets acquired life or till [Vanessa] remarries ... similar to her mother is doing to me."
Is that really fair, though?First off, Kobe was reportedly caught cheating when the wives of some of his teammates told Vanessa Bryant of the player's increasingly frequent infidelities.
Second, ten years is a long ass time, and 2 children are lots of labor. Yes, having children to "trap" the dad is a baby mama staple, but this does not appear to be that.
They married young, before Kobe was that rich (she stands to receive at least $75 million now), and despite no matter rep she has, she never seeks attention.
Finally, she stood by Kobe when he was accused of RAPING somebody. Enduring public humiliation isn't part of the gold-digging handbook ... $4 million ring or not.
